Publisher's Synopsis
This book offers a provocative look at the central role played by American business practitioners in imagining and materializing the United States as a collaborative, self-governing nation.
In just a blink of historic time (1776-1965) we Americans fought and experimented our way to become the world's richest and most powerful nation, awesomely advancing our own well-being while helping better the human condition globally.
Today, Collectivism intruding, we have become a divided people and nation--culturally and politically. The State's power increasing, the Government's control tightening, individual self-governance is diminished and our people's future has darkened.
To escape this dilemma we must reimagine and revitalize our exceptional American Experiment in self-governance. Business persons have a vital self-interest, as well as a civic duty, to assure that our next round of nation-building succeeds.
